Hello, I would really appreciate some advice. When I visit my son in Madison he usually picks me up in Hartford but this year I'm flying into New York City, I don't want him to hassle with the drive so I'm trying to figure out how to take the train. Can someone please help. Ty for your time

You will probably spend more time commuting from the airport to Madison than on your trip to NYC and hopefully you will arrive early in the day... you will need to take the subway to Grand Central or Penn Station to pick up the train into Union Station in New Haven CT and transfer on Shoreline East to Madison. It may be easier to take the CTLimo.com airport shuttle, which also stops at Union Station and take the train to Madison from there or have your son pick you up in New Haven which is less than a 3rd of the distance to when hes picked you up in Hartford.... taking the train from the airport will make for a very long day!
